Our logo is the foundation of our visual identity system. Though it stands on its own, the details help tell our story and engage our audiences. The mark is approachable, friendly, and optimistic, while still retaining familiar elements of our previous identity, such as color and symbolism.
Our primary logo, which can be stacked horizontally or vertically, is our default logo and includes both our organization's full name and our acronym. Our simpler, secondary logo may be used when the organization name is referenced elsewhere in a given design. It may also be used when the mark must be shown at a small scale
